SpinBox) and an assortment of
scrollable widgets.
<a class="reference internal" href="#module-tkinter.tix" title="tkinter.tix: Tk Extension Widgets for Tkinter"><code class="xref py py-mod docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">tkinter.tix</span></code></a> also includes many more widgets that are generally useful in
a wide range of applications: <a class="reference internal" href="#tkinter.tix.NoteBook" title="tkinter.tix.NoteBook"><code class="xref py py-class docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">NoteBook</span></code></a>, <a class="reference internal" href="#tkinter.tix.FileEntry" title="tkinter.tix.FileEntry"><code class="xref py py-class docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">FileEntry</span></code></a>,
<a class="reference internal" href="#tkinter.tix.PanedWindow" title="tkinter.tix.PanedWindow"><code class="xref py py-class docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">PanedWindow</span></code></a>, etc; there are more than 40 of them.</p>
<p>With all these new widgets, you can introduce new interaction techniques into
applications, creating more useful and more intuitive user interfaces. You can
design your application by choosing the most appropriate widgets to match the
special needs of your application and users.</p>
